As It Was Written! Dune 2 Movie Reaction

[@isakoqv]

Fun fact: Pilots usually say "descend" when talking about going to a lower altitude, and since "ascend" sounds very similar they say "climb" when raising the altitude to avoid possible confusion over radio.

[@pseudonymousbeing987]

That's dope. Explains it's use in Andor. Though it's also a thematic thing continuously through that and Rogue One representing a moral and revolutionary climb.

[@Guilty_Glasses]

As a student pilot, I can confirm. Many words can sound scrambled over the radio, and in fact, we have a special alphabet we use (alpha, bravo, Charlie, delta, echo, foxtrot, golf, etc, look up the aviation alphabet) in order to keep words from being confused. You never want to take the wrong exit off of a runway or take the wrong taxiway.

[@argkitsune]

Fun fact: when Chani tells Stilgar he's insane, she says the Chakobsa phrase "Zaihaash lek", which is literally "you're drinking sand".

“I wrote the Dune series because I had this idea that charismatic leaders ought to come with a warning label on their forehead: 'May be dangerous to your health." - Frank Herbert

[@cangaroojack]

To answer the "Why no shields?" we have 2 reasons: The first was mentioned in the first movie, which is that shields in the desert are a death sentence since they cause worms to go into a killing frenzy, but since they are on a tall rock outcrop I would say that the second reason is why: They were being shot by laser guns, and when a laser gun hits a shield it cause a huge explosion, kinda like a nuclear bomb, this was not specified in the movies, but if i had to guess a reason it's this one

[@No_One_Important960]

In the books it says that nobody ever uses laser weapons because shields are so prevalent. It also said it's like a neutron bomb, so way stronger than a nuke. But I guess they just thought the lasers were a cool effect for the movie. 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@SpitFir3Tornado]

A neutron bomb is a type of nuke designed to emit more radiation and is way less powerful than typical nuclear weapons because the energy is being emitted as radiation rather than blast or thermal energy.

[@MrJibbajabbawocky]

Also, firing a Lasgun while wearing an active shield will cause the Shield/Las reaction

Lee: This daughter's a GANGSTER. Daughter from the book: Get my knife.

[@ayomanman9041]

34:23 she says will be born in the south, she's referring to Paul when he drinks the water of life. Meaning a new person once he arrives in the south

[@jbird4165]

Facts. I also figured she wasn’t talking about the daughter because the kwisatz haderach HAS to be a man that’s why they were calling out to them in dune 1 “Lisan Al Gaib” “the mother and the son”

my local witch apothecary sold me some dried worm. I need to read up on the passages about how to use it. don't tell me how to use it unless you cite sources.

[@SpitFir3Tornado]

idk what you're yapping about but it's in the end of the first book how the worm life cycle works

[@TheNightshotBR]

Fun fact: when you're riding a worm, you pull on the hooks and they expose the worms inner skin. That prevents the worm from diving into the sand, since it's painful to expose their skin to the sand.

[@johnhall4210]

Paul is 15 when he killed Jamis. The freman are shocked a boy killed one of their fighters.

[@Danilo-u7f]

6:27 use a shield in the desert and all worms from are will come, going into a killing frenzy. liet said this when they were flying above crawler in the part one, when paul asked that.

[@councilofautumn]

1:13:30 They nuked the shield wall so the sand worms and sandstorm could get in.

[@jbird4165]

They also hit the mountain

[@RaoulKunz1]

I love how Villeneuve avoided the most stupid sin of the '84 version and did *not* end this in a triumph: Paul has just unleashed his fanatical and powerful Fremen legions onto the Empire in a Holy War, As a consequence the Empire is at war, essentially with itself, and it's a total war, The Bene Gesserit are both still in the game and to a degree also still in control. Paul knows he's a tool in many ways and he now knows that he *has had* no other way and has had none right from the point when The Reverend Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam tests him in the first part. Essentially think of Paul Atreides as uniting the Shakespearean characters of Prince Hamlet, Macbeth *and* his opponent Macduff in one tragic character. Best regards Raoul G. Kunz

[@anguscampbell3020]

You missed the point, think about when paupnsaid "We will survive by being Harkonnen" and look at how sad he is when he says "Lead them to paradise"

[@Despotic_Waffle]

It basically means we will survive by being cruel and oppressive

"He's not the messiah; he's a very naughty boy!"

[@ambermarshall2263]

This is what Chani was fighting against the whole time - and why she rightfully feared him becoming revered as the Mahdi or a leader of her people. He was going to lead them, and 61 billion others across the universe "To Paradise." And they were willing to do it... when she was watching them fly off world to slaughter all of the remaining Great Houses, alone, she had not only lost Paul in that moment, but her people as well. I should say that this is far different than her character in the book - but it does better serve to drive home the entire point of the book - you should fear charismatic leaders, even when you think they are in your favor - they are human and have their own motivations, and they will ruthlessly sacrifice you for their own gain if it comes down to a choice between you and them.

[@ebrimajallow3165]

Genuine question: isn't the alternative the eventual eradication of her people by the Harkonnens, which would be in line with what Paul stated as possible futures with one narrow way to victory?

[@MrSmokinDragon]

@@ebrimajallow3165 life is seldom either/or - there might be a million other ways to accomplish the survival of the Fremen

[@ebrimajallow3165]

@@MrSmokinDragon I suppose that is a possibility but at the same time, without Paul's influence, and with the Emperor and Feyd Rautha's tactics, it could have easily spelled the end of the Fremen. I'm not trying to justify Paul's eventual actions, but it seems to me that its either of two choices: whatever notion of victory which could happen through Paul or eradication if Paul wasn't there. It seems like those are the only options (even though Paul's decisions can be questioned). I haven't read the books though, so I don't have all the pieces.

[@ambermarshall2263]

@@ebrimajallow3165 Ultimately, yes - but she had no way of knowing that - neither she, nor even the Bene Gesserit know the depth of his prescience at this time in the story. And even so - there could have been better alternatives (as revealed much later in the books). There are no happy endings for a long time....

[@ebrimajallow3165]

@ambermarshall2263 I'm less so talking about Chani or the Bene Gesserit than I am the audience. A lot of comments that I see seem to attack Paul's role and "false messiah" more than show they show nuance in the idea that the choices were very limited. Terrible victory or eventual eradication, seemingly, like I said. Yeah, I get that vibe that there is no immediate happy ending. "Lead them to paradise" while talking about your enemies sounds... not great, to say the least.

[@joaovictorkelima2551]

a wonderful reaction from you to this masterpiece that is the main basis for inspiring GAME OF THRONES, MATRIX, AVATAR and STAR WARS (all films involving Skywalker/Jedi taken directly from the work of Frank Herbert) and without Dune none of these works would exist .

[@rikk319]

True enough, but Dune was a product of its own times, too. Frank Herbert wanted to turn the white savior trope on its ear, and had been paying attention to different European colonies around the world in the 50s and 60s fighting to gain their independence. All of those stories that took from Dune were derivatives and didn't follow it completely. Avatar was a straight up white savior theme, Star Wars was meant to be uncomplicated entertainment not a political thriller, A Song of Ice And Fire went full political thriller and left the "chosen one" trope behind, and The Matrix fully embraced the "chosen one" trope and focused more on philosophy, not politics.

[@KrazzeeKane]

Its always funny to me how the Reverend Mother Moriam calls Princess Irulan her "greatest student", when in the book it is *very* much the opposite. The Princess is generally considered not a particularly great example of a Bene Gesserit, and isn't particularly liked by them or the Reverend Mother

[@AK-do9jw]

i think they just wanted her to show as a great manipulator and politician but yeah irulan wasnt skilled in terms of bene gesserit training

[@pseudonymousbeing987]

Maybe Gaius is sucking up the Emperor making him feel good. She's very dismissive and cold towards Irulan, although she's like that with everyone.

[@rhaedas9085]

[@Roach_Dogg_JR]

⁠@@pseudonymousbeing987 it’s interesting because if you think about it, bene gesserit training has nothing to do with one’s intelligence, or reasoning ability. It just so happens that most bene gesserit are extremely intelligent.

[@pseudonymousbeing987]

@@Roach_Dogg_JR Well no for multiple reasons. They've been breeding for millennia so genetically any descendant of a Bene Gesserit has smart genetics (intelligence is hereditary, this is a fact). Two, anyone brought into a Bene Gesserit school as they often are would probably be recruited for their high quality as an individual. Three, they have millennia of training. They've learned how to maximise human potential and instill the necessary values and the right teachings to maximise intelligence.

Great reaction, cheers -- you guys have better insights and intuition than the vast majority of people who are reacting to Dune, including some that have tried to read up on the source material and still don't really understand it.

[@9Jov]

you guys are so entertaining, dope reaction

[@70briareos]

The rule about shields is do not use them when out in the open in the deep desert as it attracts the worms and drive them into a killing frenzy. Using shields in cities like Arrakeen is okay as those are situated in protected areas where the worms don't venture.

[@cainolivares8002]

i swear i saw this already

[@zdenekdolezal9646]

If I am not mistaken language for GoT Dothrakies and Shakobsa for Fremen created the same person, that is why Paul in his speach sounded similar to them.

[@dnjae1275]

Actually the baron called the great houses because he was trying to double cross the emperor.

[@ryanhampson673]

Its sounds like Dothraki because the same guy that created Dothraki for GOT is the same that created this language for Dune.

[@dawkosvk]

In the book tchani wasn't happy about Paul and irulan getting together but she understood it was the only way to get to the crown...

[@StereoTypeset]

[@crapface911]

this movie is so good, and if you read the books it makes watching the movie so much better still

[@zoesumra9152]

There's a treaty against first nuclear strikes on humans. Paul bypassed that by using his nukes on the mountains, which were protecting Arakeen from the worms - its location had mountains on three sides and solid rock on the other, none of which worms could penetrate. Past tense!

[@JeshuaSquirrel]

Regarding the filmbooks about sand walking, I have an idea of what Paul was trying to say. "That's interesting. I watched filmbooks, but they got it wrong. They said to [do thing in opposite of what Chani just said]. Can you show me again the right way?"

Nah. He was mansplaining 😂

"Yall talk too much." Bro, I'm here for a reaction. If I want yall to be quiet I'd just watch the movie. I'm here to HEAR you talk about it.

[@cteal2018]

1:30:19 Yes and no, He is trying to talk Paul up and make him sound like he da sh*t, but Paul has just spent 1.8 movies trying NOT to be the One. Stilgar doesn't know this, or doesn't respect it. If he doesn't know, then Stilgar is a fool and working aginst his homie unknowingly. If he doesn't respect it, then that is even worse. At then end when Paul says "Lead them to Paradise", he is sad.

[@sk_lurks]

Iti s always interesting seeing reactions and finding where on the spectrum of propaganda the reactors fall. Like...how much do they believe in Paul and the prophecy, despite the film outright telling you it's made up. Paul is powerful since he IS the Kwisatz Haderach and that is real, but the Lisan Al Ghaib is pure propaganda. For example, when Paul picks the name Muad'dib, he plays it like a joke, but given that he already knows their language and has studied the Fremen extensively, there's no reason to assume he doesn't already know what it means or its cultural significance.

[@sk_lurks]

Same when Chani's tears resurrect Paul. I feel that was a put-on, as it doesn't really make sense that her tears would have any actual power to bring him back. He was playing the crowd because he knows the prophecies.

[@Frederiknshansen]

@@sk_lurks Perhaps that is best thought of as that in the movie. In the books he is stuck in a spice-induced trance from the water of life, until he gets a "shock" by the drop (with the tear).

[@sk_lurks]

@@Frederiknshansen That makes sense, it has been many, many years since I have read the books.

[@KrazzeeKane]

Biggest issue the movie made with Rabban's character was casting Dave Bautista--he made everyone assume the character is WAY tougher and more badass than he is lol, and it confuses people as to why he's a pushover. In the book, Rabban is basically a mini-baron, fat and cruel and ruthless and bloodthirsty--but not tough or a good fighter or anything, he is a giant coward if it ever comes down to a real fight. And when people see Dave Bautista, they are assuming the exact opposite of that kind of a character lol, so everyone gets so surprised when he turns out to be a giant bitch, since he looks like he would be a monster in a fight.

[@Roach_Dogg_JR]

One interesting mislead I just thought of is the fact that the camera lingers on his whip attached to his belt in one scene, and it probably made people see him as more intimidating, like he had some badass whip fighting skills. But, if you think about it, there’s no way a whip could ever be a good combat weapon. It needs to go too fast to do damage, a shield would block it. That whip was purely used to abuse his subordinates and powerless citizens of arrakeen. It’s symbolic of his character, an intimidating weapon that looks scary, and is very effective against less powerful people, but against an equal, it is useless.

[@rikk319]

@@Roach_Dogg_JR Rabban was a bully, in the book and films. It just so happened they cast someone who looked intimidating for the film, but he had no fighting skill and just brute strength.

[@Christian-el2bz]

Maybe you should appreciate that instead? Because you're describing a nice fake misdirection from the director - that will catch non readers completely off guard. While readers can sit back and enjoy how the situation will play out??
